Fox News on Wednesday evening broadcast portions of a videotape showing what it said were graphic examples of torture at the hands of Iraqi soldiers. The videotape showed black-clad soldiers reading off charges in a crowded public square, then meting out punishment — cutting off fingers and tongues, tossing people from buildings and even decapitating one individual.

A search in German media for this report shows no results - not yet. Perhaps the German media will still find the time to report on the the petty crimes of little criminal Saddam after they took care of the incredible deeds of the giant war criminal Bush...

I could send you 100000000000000000000000000 articles which say just the opposite. Use your brain, Luther, when you have one and then decide what you think is right. But let us go on.

We have to work on this and change some things soon. But at the moment the right people do the right thing and I support it as much as I can. I read some Iraqi online discussions. You also should do so, perhaps it will to clear your mind. I won't offend you but it is wasted time to discuss the strange thoughts of others.
